Subject: LVM on raid10,f2 performance issues
Date: Mon, 01 Dec 2008 01:00:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49332920.5010503@gmail.com> (raw)
When I setup LVM on top of a 4 disk RAID 10 with f2 layout read/write
performance is really worse - it's far below single drive speed...
I did some testing with dd and hexdump and I noticed that after writing
a 128k file (with 64k "X" and 64k "Y") to the lvol the data on the raw
disks looks somewhat weird:
sda: sdb: sdc: sdd:
----------------------
YYYY .... .... XXXX
.... .... .... ....
XXXX YYYY .... ....
.... .... .... ....
Any hints how to tune this? With LVM on a standard RAID 10 (n2) the data
appears as expected on the disks:
sda: sdb: sdc: sdd:
----------------------
YYYY YYYY XXXX XXXX
.... .... .... ....
.... .... .... ....
.... .... .... ....
